Plata dulce (meaning "easy money", literally "sweet money") is an Argentine comedy drama-historic film. It was released on 8 July 1982 and directed by Fernando Ayala, starring Federico Luppi, Julio de Grazia and Gianni Lunadei. It received a Cóndor de Plata award for best film in 1983.
During this historic period in Argentina, many labour rights were suspended and industrial production fell to extremely low levels, while banks started rising and external debt grew practically exponentially. The result of these policy (which aimed for easy money) was one of the biggest financial disasters in the country's history, producing a large loss of its industry and bringing large part of the population into poverty.
